Hello,

As of Automake 1.13.1, in the documentaion, in node The Uniform Naming Scheme, last paragraph:

     Some primaries also allow additional prefixes that control other
  aspects of `automake''s behavior.  The currently defined prefixes are
  `dist_', `nodist_', `nobase_', and `notrans_'.  These prefixes are
  explained later (*note Program and Library Variables::) (*note Man
  Pages::).

is not written, which primaries allow additional prefixes, and which do not allow.

Moreover, I got confused by EXTRA_ , dist_ and _SCRIPTS. "EXTRA_SCRIPTS = file" is legal, as is "dist_EXTRA_SCRIPTS = file" . According to my expectations, the last shall mean, that on "make dist" the latter implies, that "file" is included in the tarball, but it isn't. Eventually, I had to use dist_noinst_SCRIPTS.

Do I misread the documentation, that dist_EXTRA_SCRIPTS is wrong, or is it not written?

Greetings
